The most bizarre start to a game I have ever seen.
The Panthers build on their historic start to the season by winning the Championship Basketball Tournament (formerly the Whataburger tournament). They knocked off the previously top ranked, and undefeated, Round Rock Stony Point in the championship game.

If the Plano East boys basketball team's victory over Stony Point showed anything, it's that the Panthers can win a game in the trenches.
East prevailed in a physical, defensive rock fight and brought that same doggedness to its home gym in Friday's rivalry showdown with Plano.
